First American Edition of the account of Shackleton's famous first expedition on board the Nimrod. The explorers passed the winter of 1908 in McMurdo Sound, and in the fall a party accomplished the first ascent of the volcanic Mount Erebus and surveyed its various craters. In the spring and summer of 1908-09, three sledging parties left winter quarters. One, travelling via a route along the newly discovered Great Beardmore Glacier, set a record for the farthest south, reaching 88?23'S, Shackleton deciding to turn back within only 97 miles of the pole rather than risk the lives of his men. Another which included Sir Douglas Mawson reached the South Magnetic Pole for the first time, and a third surveyed the mountain ranges west of McMurdo Sound. Shackleton was subsequently knighted for his achievements. Spence 1098. cfNational Maritime Museum Cat. I 1099.
